.... What do computers do best? Obey rules. What do they do worst? Allow latitude. Why? Because computers don't know when to look the other way.

We're screwed <....> because we're undercutting the basis of our shared intellectual and creative lives. For us to talk, argue, try out ideas, tear down and build up thoughts, assimilate and appropriate concepts - heck, just to be together in public - we have to grant all sorts of leeway. That's how ideas breed, how cultures get built. If any public space needs plenty of light, air, and room to play, it's the marketplace of ideas.

Aye. By the way muslim tradition have no concept of intellectual property. Does that ring any bell?

What we need is to build new business culture and new payment mechanisms to accomodate new situation. Not take today nightmarish situation (that is bad on both sides - I dislike modern corporate approach no less than modern piracy) and declare it a norm.
